If you would call it the designer of an average car's fault 
that you can't transport a grand piano in it.

PA is for 'consumer' use, its scope ends at ITU 5.1 or so.
It doesn't support any serious multichannel card (like the
the comlete RME series, up to 64+64 channels). Users of such
cards don't need or want PA, so it's really not a problem at
all.

If you use such cards you probably have Jack running, and
if you really want PA you can configure it as a Jack client.
